Quadrature wavelength scanning interferometry

A novel method to double the measurement range of wavelength scanning interferometry (WSI) is described. In WSI the measured optical path difference (OPD) is affected by a sign ambiguity, i.e. from an interference signal it is not possible to distinguish whether the OPD is positive or negative. The...
